I mean yeah, it was a act of war to bomb a embassy in a foreign country.
How dare they fight back. That’s such an antagonistic thing to do. Don’t they know they’re not allowed to defend themselves.
It reminds me of my own father knocking down the bathroom door and then saying, “Put your hands down. I consider that threatening.”
It’s anti semitic to get upset over your embassy getting bombed
They should do nothing. Iran can’t invade Israel. Israel can’t invade Iran If Iran attacks civilians, they risk setting off a larger war in the area. Iran isn’t popular with the Arabs. I suspect they’ll do a small limited attack against something Israeli and call victory. They know if it went to war, they’ll lose.
Iran isn’t popular with Arabs, but they’re much more popular than Israel.
The Arabs? What does that mean? That’s like saying all South Americans think collectively and cohesively. Arabs are comprised of vastly different cultures from vastly different regions. There is a lot of nuance and the word is often used as an orientalism.
As an Egyptian, you’re overthinking it. Almost all Arabs have a very similar image of Israel because we’ve seen firsthand (or secondhand from Palestinians) how ridiculously horrible Israel is.
Fair, and much respect. There is an aspect of centrist-right to far-right western culture that consolidates all Arabs into one group with intent to demonize. It is fairly common.
All the people sharing the same past with those countries have somewhat similar views of them because of their past interactions with each other.
And by “believe” we mean “want”, in the case of Israel.
Netanyahu is attacking Israel’s neighbours because he’s trying to drag more countries into this mess.
Once that happens, the US will get further involved and the Israeli genocide against Palestinian civilians becomes just one front rather than the focal point.
“Want” in the case of the US too mind you!
What’s a bit of murder if it brings in the 🤑🤑💰💰💰💰
Oh no, not the consequences of my actions!
If I were Iran I would try and be patient and just let global revulsion against Israel and the US continue to grow.
Unlike israel, Iran actually has the right to defend itself.
Every country has the right to defend itself. It’s the overreacting by committing genocide that’s not a right.
Does Russia have “the right to defend itself” in occupied Ukrainian territories? No.
An occupying power does not have the right to defend itself.
Only Gaza had the right to resist by any means against occupation.
This is international law.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Israel on Monday struck an Iranian consulate in Damascus, Syria, and killed a number of senior leaders of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, according to the Pentagon.
A public funeral was held in Tehran on Friday for the seven IRGC members killed in the suspected Israeli strike in Damascus, including two generals, CBS News’ Seyed Bathaei reported.
At the funeral, the IRGC’s overall commander, Gen. Hossein Salami, warned that Israel “cannot escape the consequences” of assassinating Iranian military officers, he did not give any further indication of how or when Iran might retaliate, Bathaei said.
National Security Council coordinator for strategic communications John Kirby said that President Biden in his phone call Thursday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu discussed Iranian threats to Israel.
Earlier Friday, Iranian presidential adviser Mohammad Jamshidi posted on X that Iran’s message to American leaders was “not to get dragged in Netanyahu’s trap for U.S.: Stay away so you won’t get hurt.”
A State Department spokesperson told CBS that the U.S. responded by sending a written warning to Iran not to use the Israeli strike as a “pretext to attack U.S. personnel and facilities.”

Ballistic and cruise missiles. As I said previously they can’t invade Israel. All they can do is launch missiles Israel.
